Chef [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 38: I Work as a Cook in a Brothel
Washing at the fourth watch, entering the palace at the fifth watch, standing at the gate of Fengtian Hall for a day, and patrolling at night, this is the day of Yue Shan, the commander-in-chief of the imperial army.
More than ten years ago, Yue Shan was a dandy in the army. He made a bet with others to go to the martial arts examination. Because of his good looks, he was favored by Emperor Yongde, and he was promoted to be a guard by his side. Year after year, he was promoted to the imperial army. In the position of general commander, the former number one champion in martial arts has gradually changed from a high-spirited young man to a greasy middle-aged man. He married one wife and three concubines, but because of his special work, he has limited time in the mansion every day. Head green.
Another morning, when Yue Shan went out, he heard the movement of Yingying and Yanyan. It should be that his wife was calling concubines to serve her again. Yue Shan sighed deeply and decided to be an enlightened middle-aged man. , Choose to forgive them.
At Fengtian Palace, the guards on duty today either huddled in the corridor and ate the noodles made by the old mother, or the meals made by the beautiful wife. Only he silently took out the sesame seed cakes that were sold on the way into the palace. Men like to compare when they have nothing to do. From eating food to small things on their bodies, the guards have special clothes. It is impossible for you to enter the palace gate if you are not dressed neatly. Lei was not under the regulation, Yue Shan was eating sesame seed cakes, looking at the old purse on his body that had not been replaced for three years and had frayed edges, and the tassel he bought fell into contemplation.
As an old tool man, Yue Shan sighed again, comforting himself that His Majesty is worse than him, at least he can go home with his salary, and he can still get some good looks, while Your Majesty...
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Meng Bai, the general of Shanglin, coming on duty. The 16-year-old boy was upright, and his armor was becoming more and more heroic, but there was a smile on his face, and he was holding a food box in his hand. Come the alluring aroma.
Yue Shan stared at the biscuits in his hand again and lost himself in thought.
Zhang Xiaobai greeted Yue Shan, and smiled at the imperial guards. Qin Ze didn't like to use eunuchs, and he often worked in the former court. On the contrary, the imperial guards around him became celebrities in front of the emperor. It is in the palace, if it is outside the palace, there will be no smiling face when seeing Zhang Xiaobai.
Zhang Xiaobai made a lot of breakfast food today. He also saw that everyone else brought food to work. Only Yue Shan bought something outside every day to deal with it casually. He took out a individually wrapped beef pie from the food box and handed it to Yue Shan said with a smile: "With the general's physique, one biscuit can't be enough to eat. Come on, try this biscuit and see how it tastes. If it tastes good, I'll make more next time."
Yue Shan was so moved that his eyes filled with tears, he took a bite of the pie, the skin of the pastry was crispy, and it tasted like a layer cake, and the beef filling inside was not as loose as the usual stuffing, it looked like a whole piece Like beef, the meat was firm and slightly spicy, with plenty of juice that almost didn't drip down his chin.
Although he was embarrassed to eat, the hot pie really healed Yue Shan's taste buds. Before Zhang Xiaobai could speak, he swallowed a mouthful of the pie and said to him in a low voice: "The general can wait a while before going in. An official went in and was scolded just now." , Your Majesty may not be in a good mood."
Zhang Xiaobai nodded, but the place where the two of them were talking was in the air, and if you didn’t pay attention, you might not be able to hear it, but Qin Ze pricked up his ears when Zhang Xiaobai’s footsteps appeared inside, and he had been listening for a while now, seeing Yue Shan This bitch actually dared to slander himself, and immediately said loudly: "You can't stop your mouth if you eat! Come in Xiaobai."
The first half of the sentence was like a storm, and the second half was gentle like water. Hearing Yue Shan felt a chill, Zhang Xiaobai showed a smile on his face, nodded to Yue Shan, and carried the food box into Fengtian Hall.
Today's breakfast is yam shredded chicken porridge, with grapefruit radish, and a plate of tofu skin steamed buns, which are stuffed with pork and shrimp. They are both for two people. Fearing that Qin Ze won't be full, Zhang Xiaobai made two more Beef Pie.
Qin Ze was a bit of a protective person. When he saw the beef pie, he thought of the one that was eaten by Yue Shan, and his face was a little ugly, but when he looked up and saw Xiao Bai who was smiling, his anger subsided, and he said silently. He tidied up the memorials and official documents in front of him, and made room for Zhang Xiaobai.
The yam shredded chicken porridge is slightly thick, which is Qin Ze's favorite consistency. The fragrance of the yam and the umami of the shredded chicken are completely set off by the fragrant rice that has been boiled to bloom. The radish pickled in grapefruit juice is a little more sweet and sour It tastes like the original taste of radish, but it will not be too spicy to affect the taste. Qin Ze drank a large bowl of porridge with grapefruit radish, ate two small steamed buns, and a piece of beef pie. It must be [-]% full.
According to the health-preserving habits in the palace, eating is at most five points full, and you can stop chopsticks when you don’t feel hungry. According to Qin Ze’s appetite, it is almost equivalent to letting him eat two small steamed buns and a few mouthfuls of porridge before putting down his chopsticks. Qin Ze He doesn't follow this rule, he must eat until he can't eat any more, this is one of the sequelae of people who have come from troubled times.
After eating, the palace servants came to pack up the things, and when Zhang Xiaobai was on duty, someone would bring clean food boxes and bowls and chopsticks. Since Zhang Xiaobai even started to take out breakfast for Qin Ze, the imperial dining room only used Concentrate on eating in the harem.
Yue Shan said that Qin Ze scolded the ministers in the palace just now, thinking that he started scolding in the morning, but in fact, the guards on duty at night just changed shifts, otherwise they could tell him that His Majesty actually scolded the ministers in the middle of the night, from the second watch Tian was woken up and kept swearing.
This is a part of the plot in the original story. The earthquake in Shangjing, according to the normal timeline, at this time Emperor Yongde was still in power, and the three princes seized the throne. During the earthquake, Qin Lan adopted Meng Lian's suggestion, In front of Emperor Yongde, he got a lot of impression points, but here in Qinze, the emperor's star resides in the imperial capital. The officials concealed the situation of the disaster for the sake of the assessment, and they didn't report to Qin Ze until some victims went to Beijing to file a complaint.
Qin Ze scolded people all night long, and he didn't need to use this to test the prince's ability to handle affairs like Emperor Yongde did. He distributed things to others while cursing. The plan was completed before Yue Shan came on duty just now. It is reasonable to select an official with a high status to go to the town. Qin Ze originally planned to send an old man with a high prestige. After thinking about it, he thought it was wrong. The old man died on the way. what to do?Thinking of the recent dissatisfaction with his appointment of female officials in the court, Qin Ze sneered, and took advantage of the opportunity of scolding the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty so that they could not lift their heads, and promoted several female officials to the front line for disaster relief.
To be honest, it is normal for officials to be greedy for disaster relief funds. The older officials are, the more they dare to be greedy. New officials have to gamble on their character. Qin Ze has no time to do that. It's not that female officials will stop being greedy, but the situation can at least be better. , these female officials are all new officials. After being appointed by him, they are in an embarrassing situation. Men can compete with each other and compete for power, but there are few female officials, and they are at a disadvantage in number. They are naturally an alliance. At this time, everyone will consciously Become an eyeliner, and not do things that will damage the interests of the entire female officer group.
Qin Ze never avoided Zhang Xiaobai's affairs in the officialdom, instead he would break them apart and explain clearly to him. Apart from secretly prodding and expressing his own thoughts, he also hoped to make him more careful. With him around, Xiaobai could not fight or grab, but he was already older than Xiaobai, if he left early, Xiaobai was alone and did not have the strength to match his status, how would he live?
Apart from the most urgent issue of disaster relief, the border has not been peaceful recently. The barbarians are divided into four divisions, three of which are masters who often plunder, and the Yuanzhen tribe, which is the most powerful. The soldiers basically don't attack the Great Chu. The Yuanzhen Department's vision is set on the grassland, eyeing the other three. According to Qin Ze's words, this is a fierce tiger, and the brothers who have taken care of a nest will come out to hunt. However, the minds of the previous generations of great Chu kings seemed to be muddled. The first emperor thought that this was an ally. The first of its kind for the same Yuanzhen Khan.
Qin Ze felt that his visit might be the result of the legendary ancestor's apparition.
The last time the Yuan Zhen Department asked for a marriage was ten years ago. At that time, Emperor Yongde was so smart. He gently and skillfully made the daughter of the brother's family a princess and sent him there. , The sword eyebrows and star eyes look good, it's not like that on the princess, the makeup is exquisite, and you can praise the beauty of the thick face, once you go to the place where you don't need anything, it immediately looks rough.
The barbarians saw too many thick and strong girls, but they loved the white and thin girls from Chu people very much. The first princess died half a year after going there, and the second princess was not favored after passing. Da Khan is nearly 20 years older than her, and has more than [-] wives and concubines. Some merchants from Chu even came back crying and said that the princess feeds horses and sheep in the tribe every day. In the old days, the dowry maids at the time wore gold and silver, and in turn bullied the princess.
Qin Ze was furious after hearing this. He is different from Emperor Yongde. Don't care if the one who is sent is his own daughter or not. Sending it out represents the face of a country. If the face is trampled underfoot, what kind of allies are there? friendship?
Last year, there was not much rain on the grasslands, and the Yuanzhen Ministry was used to militarism. They wanted to make trouble this year, so they killed the princess, sent envoys to Dachu, and sent some cattle and sheep to congratulate Qin Ze on his ascension to the throne. Marry a big Chu princess.
Qin Ze was so angry that he was about to spit on the envoy's face for breakfast. He took a breath and ordered the envoy to be dragged out to kill him. Halfway through the process, he suddenly changed his mind and called out to the officials: "There are too few officials who have committed crimes recently. You haven't seen Ling Chi for a long time, right?"
The ministers: ...you make it clear, we don't want to see this!
